    It fishes two comfortably. (Rfisher & Myself) Plenty of room to fish on its decks. It's a Carolina Skiff 258 DLV w/ a Big Block Suzuki 150 4-Stroke.
    I can fish 3 out of my 16" flatbottom, so that thing should fish 3 comfortably!

    Never have...i do most of my freshwater stuff on some of the land that i duck hunt.

    That boat was strictly bought for duck hunting, be have used it to fish some of our bigger lakes. We got on lake that's about 70 acres and then another outside of Waco that's about 40.

    This is my first Merc and it has ran better than any others motors I have had. I will like it for at least 6 more years when the warranty runs out

    I always thought they (Mercs) were "welfare" motors. I have 2 now (twin '03 115s) and 1 08 Yammie 150 Vmax-all 2 strokes. They are OK and act about same as any other-all cost $ to maintain and all wear about the same. The Yammie seems more sensitive to the dang ethanol.
